Tesco Orange Fruit Drink

In the last couple of months I’ve been picking up this Tesco brand orange fruit drink whenever I could find it.

It costs less than 5 ringgit per 1.5 litre bottle. The listed price is RM4.89 but they occasionally have discounts. That’s 20%-30% cheaper compared to other brands.

Last year there were some “orange juice” wars in the newspapers. Remember those ads claiming that they were the real “orange juice” while others were only “orange fruit drink”? Well this Tesco brand is obviously an orange fruit drink.

I have no illusions about this being healthy or natural. But it’s comparable in flavour and texture to Peel Fresh, with orange sacs included.

The Tesco near our home doesn’t seem to have them in stock anymore, I found these at a second Tesco store. They are not found in the refrigerated section. You need to look at the cordials / syrups aisle and keep your eyes on the bottom shelf.

They also have apple and blackcurrant juices. The apple juice is a bit too watered down for my liking. I haven’t tried the blackcurrant.
